This one-day course (9 am to 5 pm) covers the test procedures required to verify automatic packaging conveyor weighers (package weighers), either stand-alone or used as part of a multi-dimensional measuring instrument.
For private company training, courses can be tailored based on company's requirements.
NOTE: The content of this course does not cover the testing of control instruments, which are usually non-automatic weighing instruments (NAWI), due to time constraints. If you do not have any current experience of testing/verifying NAWIs, it is strongly recommended that you complete the course Verifying non-automatic weighing instruments PRIOR to attending this course.
